    Specialties
    I am very fluid in Rock/Metal and Blues and incorporate a lot of lead guitar and speed techniques into my playing that develop excellent speed, control and coordiation that can be used in any style. In the drum world I do a wide range as well, with mostly rock and metal but also punk, tribal, techno, dance, hip hop and shuffle. I put an emphasis on including the double bass pedal in your overall style as it expands what you can do on the drumset in any genre ten fold.
    Lesson Details
    Whatever your goal may be, whether its improving technique, improving speed and control, expanding your arsenal or simply gaining better overall coordination, I have the plan and experience to show you how to get there.

    About
    I first picked up the guitar my junior year of high school, and 14 years later have since moved on to drums and bass guitar as well. I have mastered many different styles and played in several bands and continue to perform at local venues today. I have studied the works of a range of professional artists like John Petrucci of Dream Theater, Paul Gilbert and Thomas Lang on the drums to name a few. I have been teaching a wide range of students, both young and old with great results for over 7 ...

    Equipment
    In-Studio: 2 Electric guitars, 1 Half Stack Amp, 1 Pearl Double Bass Drum fully equipped drumset and 1 Bass Guitar

    In-Home: I have 2 Guitars and amps, but it is preferred that the student have their own guitar and practice amp as most students learn better on their own personal instrument and it makes the learning process easier

  • Getting Started

    Excited about jumping into music lessons? Before you can get to the guitar tabs, violin concertos, and vocal riffs, take a moment to think about the logistics of your lessons.
    Lesson Length
    There are a few things to consider when choosing between 30-, 45- or 60-minute lessons. First and foremost, take your age and experience level into account. You'll also want to think about your long- and short-term goals, and the time you'll need to reach them. Most importantly, consider how long you or your child is able to stay focused.
    Lesson Location
    Teachers have the option to display availability for in-home, in-studio, and online music lessons. In-home lessons take place at your house, in-studio lessons are conducted at the teacher's home or professional studio, and online lessons are taught over the internet via live video chat.

    Book Your Lessons Online

    Scheduling your lessons is simple and quick! The prompts will guide you through each step, from securing your lesson time to selecting the payment plan that works best for you.
    Scheduling Lessons
    After you've selected your teacher, click on the Availability tab to see which time slots and days are open.
    Booking Options
    Click the "Book Online" button to get started. Enter in your contact information, and the prompts will guide you through payments, program options, and confirming your schedule. Learn more about our booking policies.
    Payment and Billing
    We make paying for your lessons convenient and hassle-free! Prices vary based on several factors, including the city you live in, the length of your lessons, and whether you're taking them at home, in your teacher's studio, or online. Lessons are paid for in advance, which locks in your time slot.
    Signing Your Customer Agreement
    Signing your Customer Agreement and completing your Student Questionnaire is the last step! The questionnaire will give your instructor valuable information about your goals and experience level, and give him or her time to create a customized lesson plan right from the start.

    Start Your Lessons

    Now the excitement can really begin! Consider the following to ensure an exceptional first lesson...
    Prepare for Your First Lesson
    Once you've completed the last step, your teacher will call you within the next couple of days to confirm your first lesson time and provide you with directions to their studio, if needed. We also encourage you to discuss your goals and any other questions you may have.
    What To Expect
    Every teacher is different, but most first lessons begin with an assessment of where you are in your studies. At a beginner level, you might review the basics of your instrument, such as the different parts, how to hold it correctly, and proper care and maintenance. For voice, this may be the time you learn about breathing and posture.
    Reach the Goals You Set
    Every TakeLessons student is unique, and so is your lesson plan! You'll work with your instructor to develop a plan suited to meet your specific goals. Most TakeLessons instructors will also keep track of your progress with a lesson journal.

    In order to reserve your time slot, we require payment at the time of booking, which must be at least seven days before your first lesson takes place.
    How does billing work?
    Lessons are paid for in advance, which reserves your time slot and the teacher that you want. Your specific billing date will depend on the lesson program you select.

If you take your first lesson and decide that you don't want to continue, we'll refund the amount you paid INCLUDING the lesson you've already taken. To request the Money Back Guarantee, simply notify us within 72 hours of your first lesson.
    Do you offer any discounts?
    At this time, we don't offer any discounts. However, if you are booking two students for consecutive in-home lessons, you'll only be charged one travel fee, instead of one fee per lesson.
